"Not Bad" lyrics - DOLLY PARTON & FAMILY

[Verse 1: Shelley Rena]
I used to read about it in movie magazines
People drinkin' champagnes and ridin' limousines
Shoppin' at the finest stores, fancy restaurants
Diamonds rings and everything that one could ever want

[Chorus: Shelly Rena; Shelley Rena & Dolly Parton; Dolly Parton]
Not bad (not bad)
I used to say to myself, "not bad" (Not bad)
They've done alright for themselves
Livin' high and bein' free in the land of opportunity
Not bad
Not bad

[Verse 2: Shelly Rena; Shelley Rena & Dolly Parton]
I used to think how lucky those people really were
Back when I was just a kid and people still wore fur
I used to fantasize that I could even be a star
With my new clothes, a penthouse suite, and my own fancy car

[Chorus: Shelly Rena; Dolly Parton; Shelley Rena & Dolly Parton]
Not bad, Not bad
Hey, look at me, I made it
Not bad, Not bad
I got my own pink Mercedes
A poor little country girl like me, enjoyin' such prosperity
Not bad

[Post-Chorus: Shelley Rena; Dolly Parton]
Mmm-ooh, not bad
Not bad, it ain't bad, it ain't bad, it ain't bad

[Bridge: Shelley Rena; Shelley Rena & Dolly Parton]
Sometimes I look around me, I can't believe it's true
To think of where I came from and where I've gotten to

[Chorus: Shelley Rena; Dolly Parton; Shelley Rena & Dolly Parton]
Not bad, It ain't bad, it ain't bad
I've gone from rags to riches, not bad
Got a little money in my britches
To do things you wanna do
And it's good to know dreams do come true
Not bad
It ain't bad

[Outro: Shelley Rena; Dolly Parton; Shelley Rena & Dolly Parton]
Not bad, not bad
If I do say so myself
Not bad, not bad
I gotta couple trophies on my shelf
Not bad, not bad
Well, I'm rollin' in sweet clover
Not bad, not bad
Well, my cup runneth over
Livin' high and bein' free in the land of opportunity
Not bad
It ain't bad
To do things you wanna do
And it's good to know dreams do come true (They do)
Not bad
